Police using sensors during firearm training to correct and improve shooting technique

SINGAPORE: When Singapore Police Force trainee Sergeant Noorafidah Mohamed Nasar failed her first live firing test, her instructors decided that technology could lend a helping hand.

After each round is fired, this information is immediately fed back to two screens for trainees and instructors. This allows instructors to give more detailed and objective feedback, and trainees to make more accurate adjustments to improve their performance.Instructors can easily see ELFRAS feedback on a screen above the shooting lane.

“To ensure high standards, we want to invest more in terms of technology; how we can better push up the mark and do training for police officers,” he said.The SPF has been trialling ELFRAS since June with about 200 selected officers who are first-time shooters undergoing pistol and revolver training at the Home Team Academy live firing range.

“In the future, I think we might be engaging the tactical units as well,” he said. “They might be using different firearms. But that would be something that we will pursue in a subsequent phase of this project.”In its current form, most of ELFRAS’ cameras and sensors are located above or to the side of the shooting lane. Sensors are also fixed to a trainee’s weapon and protective goggles or spectacles to detect handling and gaze.
